Allens Bar Campground

Allen's bar is conveniently located right off the 101 close to the Olympic Rainforest and the Pacific beaches. We enjoyed sitting outside listening to the sounds of the river. There were several other campers in the area but there was plenty of room for everyone. We have a 37 foot class A motorhome and we were easily able to get our RV in and out. If you go closer to the water there is a big dip, watch your rear end. We stayed back from the waters edge, but there were several big RV's closer to the water. We had great cell service with Verizon.

This spot is amazing. We arrived on a Tuesday late afternoon and there were hardly any spots left in the main area (which was surprising). We ended up parking to the right on a thinner strip of land. This was nice because we had less traffic but obviously had to keep our site clean/enough space for others to drive through or walk through. During the rainy season, I’m not sure it would work to park on this section. We had some rain (not that much) 2 nights before we left and the river came up about 2 feet.

Solar was great. Verizon had 4 bars but at times was nearly unworkable (we are fulltimers and work remotely), even with booster, due to overcrowded tower. This was incredibly annoying. Our friends had an at&t hotspot and it worked better. The more crowded it was, the worse the cell situation was. And vice versa.

This place was busy and crowded our entire 12 nights here. This didn’t really bother us, but it was kind of unexpected. If you’re looking for solitude and privacy, this is not the place for you. I’m sure in the off season it calms down.

You are about 15 minutes from Ruby Beach, which is awesome! 35 min from the Hoh Rainforest. Forks is about 25 min away. Free water at a gas station in town - Mobil gas station across from the Shell. We have huge tanks so didn’t need to dump but there is a state park nearby where you can dump for $5. However it is not for big rigs due to the access. There are other places you can dump further away.

It is incredibly gracious of the owner to let everyone stay here for such a low price. Make sure to pay (cash only!!) and pick up after yourself. We were parked along the tree line and there was a lot of toilet paper and even some old feces. You are supposed to be self contained to camp here, but it does not appear people care to follow this.

Overall we would definitely stay again. 4 stars due to the cell situation, crowds, and messes in the bushes.

This place was really busy but it is absolutely gorgeous. There weren't a lot of spots to choose from since there were about 20 other rigs here. We didn't encounter any negatives except the amount of people, and we noticed one van left trash in their fire ring. That's annoying. Please pick up after yourselves, these people are offering you their property and if you trash it they will likely not allow people there any more. Be responsible and clean up after yourself! We loved splashing in the river and hanging out with the other campers. It was so hard to leave, we will definitely be back.
Cell reception for T-Mobile was great, same with verizon. Husband works remotely and uses the Verizon MiFi with booster and had I believe 8mps to work with and it worked just fine.

We went on our first dispersed camping trip here. It was easy to access and the rate was great too. The T-Mobile signal was 4 bars of 5G. The only pitfall to this location was the amount of people there. There was any where from 12 to 20 rigs there on any given day. If seclusion is what you are looking for, this may not be the place to go.
Also people..... clean up after your self. If you don't have a toilet, please don't be like the person who left their used t-paper in the tree line.

*** You need to be fully self contained. No tents ***

Stopped here on our way from the Oregon Coast to Port Angeles. No one here, beautiful river, fish jumping out of the water.

There were a few rock fire rings, so we pulled up next to one and set up camp!

Thinking about staying another night it’s so peaceful!
Stop at the gate when you enter the property. Put $5 into an envelope that’s there and fill in your info.
Head straight through the property and end up on the rock bar!

It’s mid April, so chilly. But the Sun was shining and felt warm.

Reviews are spot on but please only camp here if you’re self-contained. This spot is beautiful and the owners will shut it down if their request is not upheld. We saw a handful of this going on when we were there.

Just a beautiful location that we are lucky to have shared with us, take care of it please! Make sure to hit Ruby Beach!!

Any size rig will fit here. Plenty of space to turn around as well.
